I don't know Rust that well, but what about unwinding and multithreading for example - don't you need to give those Rust features up if you don't want to ship any runtime code?

True, yeah. It's a tradeoff, though, tiny mallocs will be much slower than an optimized malloc (like dlmalloc) on real-world benchmarks.
